NetGear Print Server Manual

Logical Printer

The logical printer screen is used to map different logical printer ports to printers attached to the Print

Server. A logical printer port is used to specify a set of printer control commands to be sent to a printer

for every print job sent through the logical port. Figure 3-8 shows the logical port screen and the

following table describes its fields.

Logical Port Fields

Logical Port

Selects the logical port to be configured. Three logical ports are available.

Get Data

Click this button to display the saved configuration parameter for the selected logical port.

Pre-String

(Hex)

Provides the control character string to send to the printer before the first character of the job is sent to the

printer. One example of such an application would be switching to landscape mode when printing to the logical

port. The string is made up of the hexadecimal code of the corresponding ASCII characters, as in these

examples:

ASCII = [Esc]&|0O

Hexadecimal = 1B266C304F

ASCII=[Esc]&|1O

Hexadecimal = 1B266C314F

An ASCII to hexadecimal number conversion table is include in the appendix.

Post-String

(Hex)

Provides the control character string to send to the printer after the last character of the job is sent to the

printer. The character string must be in hexadecimal format as illustrated in the String Before Job example

above.

Convert LF

to CR/LF

If checked, adds a carriage return (CR) every time the line feed (LF) character code is received by the print

server when print data is sent to this logical printer port. Generally this should be unchecked. It may be needed

for compatibility between Unix and Windows.

Save

Cancel

Save:

After the configuration, click on ‘Save’ button to save the value permanently.
